Frozen Shoulder

"I had a right shoulder injury and spent the last two years in a lot of pain. Consequently the movement in my right shoulder was severely restricted.

 

I saw GPs, had injections and spent vast amounts of time and money on Physio visits but with limited success.

Luckily for me one day I was told about Bowen Therapy and that Kris Freeman practiced the therapy.  With nothing to lose I thought that I would give it a go, and I am so pleased that I did!

 

Unbelievably, after the first visit I had incredible results!

 

There was a relief of tension and pain in the shoulder and also more movement was noticeable.  Subsequent visits have increased my shoulder movement to near pre injury status and I now sleep pain free!

 

Bowen therapy is relatively painless and is fantastic for all sorts of injuries, and is ideal for all age groups.

 

I have seen Kris to have various other injuries sorted out which has enabled me to continue with my sporting pursuits!  Give it a go as Bowen Therapy and Kris Freeman have been a revelation in my life!"

Vertigo

"I went to have Bowen Therapy with Kris to treat a lower back injury.  While I was there being treated, I mentioned that I had vertigo for 3 months which  stopped me from playing golf.  I told her my heart was broken and honestly I didn't believe her when she told me we would set a goal to get me back on the golf course.  I am still amazed that only after 2 treatments my vertigo is gone!"

Encopresis

"My 6 year old son had a serious condition called Epicondresis which saw him soiling his pants up to 4 times a day.  From the very first appointment we saw improvements in our son.  Kris pre-empted that he would not be happy to see her and so she had a gift of a cute calendar and sticker book for him to choose from to encourage him to drink more water.  By the second treatment he was completely clean.  We can't speak highly enough of our experience."

Arm Pain and Anxiety

"I want everyone to know how great Bowen Therapy is.

 

I have been suffering with sore arms for the last 3 years.  I thought it was arthritis and then when my Mum found out she had a genetic arm condition where she has a longer ulna and needed surgery, I thought maybe I had that.  At any rate, I was certain the pain was never going to go.

 

Then I came to see Kris.  I had never heard of Bowen Therapy before, but now I can’t speak highly enough of it.

 

The pain in my arms is gone.  After the 1st treatment I felt very relaxed, after the 2nd treatment I began to sleep better, after the 3rd treatment my arms were starting to feel better, by the 4th they were feeling great and after the 5th, I was feeling the best I have ever felt and had no arm pain at all.

 

Being a single Dad of 2 young children, Bowen Therapy is also helping me relieve my anxiety and stress levels.  I feel so good after each treatment.  Thanks so much."

Incapacitating Shoulder Pain

"I had developed pain in my left shoulder which had progressivley become more debilitating over the last few months. I think it was originally damage done in the gym - probably dumbell shoulder raises. It was then possibly compounded by archery.
 
It reached the point where I had restricted movement and fairly constant discomfort in the shoulder. The pain often kept me awake for hours at night.
 
By the time  I saw Kris I had rested the shoulder as much as possible for four weeks, ceased archery and all exercise, but with minimal improvement. I was beginning to wonder if this was a long term injury and the prospect was a concern as being active is as important for me mentally as physically.

 
So it was a great relief  when I called to hear Kris say she'd had a lot of success with shoulder injuries.  At the first session I could barely move my arm to 45 degrees above horizontal - even then it was quite painful. By the end of the session the movement in the shoulder had improved.
 
I certainly felt Kris follow well structured patterns in the manipulations during the sessions and her professionalism, confidence and enthusiasm helped me go with the flow and obviously made me receptive to the process - I was so comfortable I actually fell asleep while she was working on my back.
 
I took her advice and did lots of walking over the next week and the shoulder stretches several tmes a day. Towards the end of the week I could definately feel  a lot of improvement but still some residual pain.
 
By the second session I could almost raise my arm vertical with minimal discomfort.

 
Since the second session about two weeks ago I have gone back to archery a couple of nights a week and have slowly increased up to a sixty arrows per session - my goal over the next month is to build back up to 100 per session.
 
Last week I decided to try swimming again as it would be a good test for the shoulder and swam 30 laps with only general soreness afterwards. I can now also do push-ups again - previously my shoulder couldn't hold my weight.
 
So both physically and mentally I am in a much different place than four weeks ago and am quite surprised at the improvement in such a short time.
 
I have always had tightness and restricted rotation in my neck which I thought was normal until Kris picked up on it and it was reassuring to hear that she could address that more in another session.
 
So in short, I am truly grateful to Kris and the Bowen process and have already begun recommending her particulalry to archery club members as shoulder injuries are very common in the sport."

Severe headaches, neck and shoulder pain

"My name is Debbie and I was fortunate to be referred to Kris and had a wonderful treatment... last Thursday 25th July 2013. I presented with severe headaches, severe neck and shoulder pain, and feeling very stressed. Kris was very thorough in her questioning and subsequent moves required to attend to my many issues. After an initial lengthy treatment I left feeling vey light-headed and a bit spaced out. I felt marvellous. My pain had immediately lessened to the point of not being existent. Previously I couldn't get dressed without my shoulder hurting and sleeping was difficult. I have previously tried to get relief from a different form of Bowen and from acupuncture but was not successful. I would highly recommend Kris to anyone for any type of ailment."
